The Eagles could see a healthy dose of the Sanchise on Sunday, in addition to Dak Prescott and Tony Romo.
Pretty soon 2016 will be over, and shortly thereafter, so will the Philadelphia Eagles' season, after they finish out their final game against the Dallas Cowboys, who will be treating the Birds like a preseason opponent.
Here's the Friday injury report:
• LG Allen Barbre: If Barbre cannot play (as expected), Stefen Wisniewski will get the start at LG, although Doug Pederson noted that Isaac Seumalo could see some time there as well.
• WR Jordan Matthews: Matthews is expected to play, and Pederson said that he has been hampered for the last few games. "You've probably noticed it on the field," Pederson said. "You know, it affected him, obviously, last Thursday, and really the last couple of weeks. It frustrates him as a player because he definitely wants to be out there and we want him out there, obviously, so we'll find out more today where he's at."
Matthews needs 196 receiving yards to reach 1000 on the season.
• OG Isaac Seumalo: As noted above, Seumalo is expected to play and he could fill in some for Wisniewski at LG.
• LB Jordan Hicks: Hicks' durability concerns have to be lessened slightly, as he was able to make it through the season without any significant injuries.
• LB Mychal Kendricks: Some believe this could be Kendricks' last game as an Eagle. I don't see it that way.
Since this game has no postseason meaning, rather than list the Cowboys individually, we'll just note that Dallas has filled up their inactive list already with seven players who are ruled out, most of whom are starters. They are OT Tyron Smith, CB Morris Claiborne, LB Justin Durant, DE Tyrone Crawford, DE DeMarcus Lawrence, DT Terrell McClain, and old friend DT Cedric Thornton.
The Cowboys also have several players listed as questionable. They are RB Darren McFadden, OG Ronald Leary, CB Anthony Brown, LB Sean Lee, DE Jack Crawford, and DE Randy Gregory.
